I built Perplexica in 2024 because I was frustrated with how search worked. Traditional search engines gave me links but I wanted answers. AI chatbots gave me answers but they hallucinated. I wanted something that combined both: AI powered answers with real citations, running privately on my own hardware. I also believed that powerful AI tools shouldn't be locked behind corporate paywalls or require sending all your searches to big tech companies. Privacy matters. Open source matters. So I built Perplexica to prove that you can have an intelligent search engine that respects both. It started as a personal project to solve my own problem. Turns out, a lot of other people had the same problem too.
